The return of the A8-0 and A10-0 were both announced at the 2008 hobby show last year.

Seems like Estes has been busy with other stuff (the new lead regulations???) and never got to the stuff they were showing at last years show. Alas, I didn't make it to the show this year to see what's in the pipe for next year...

So they showed the same vaporware again ay ?
I don't believe 10% of what comes out of Estes as "press releases" or is shown at hobby shows due to the fact that the majority never makes it anyway.

Speaking of vaporware, any news on when the "Classic Series - Coming in Spring 2009" will be released if ever at all? Fall of 2010 or 11? It's too bad I'm not being sarcastic. I'm getting the same feeling about Estes that I get from push up bras. You see what you want but it's mostly, um, not in stock. Ahem.
